By technology, alkaline electrolysis is expected to dominate the global market throughout the forecast period.

Alkaline electrolysis is the major segment of the green hydrogen market in terms of value, as it is the most technologically advanced, cost-efficient, and widely utilized electrolyzer technology globally. Alkaline systems have been used in industrial hydrogen production for over two decades, yielding an excellent reliability record and a robust supply chain. They are based on the use of low-cost electrolytes, such as potassium or sodium hydroxide, and do not require the use of costly precious metals like platinum or iridium, which consequently significantly reduces the capital expenditure of such technologies.

Alkaline electrolyzers also feature long operational lifetimes, high operational stability, and continuous operation at large scales, all of which make them suitable for utility-scale green hydrogen production projects. Alkaline systems have the largest share of installed electrolyzer capacity globally, estimated at over 50% of total deployments, due to their economic advantages and technical robustness. With the commissioning of new multi-megawatt and gigawatt-scale plants, alkaline electrolysis remains the leading technology in attracting market investments and is the most valuable. 

By renewable source, wind energy is expected to dominate the global green hydrogen market during the forecast period.

The wind energy market is the largest one in the global green hydrogen sector, with the highest valuation. The primary reason is that it is the most scalable and cost-effective method for reducing the large volume of emissions, as well as being an energy-dense renewable power source for hydrogen production. The wind, especially offshore wind, is said to have very high capacity factors, which are frequently above 40% to 50%. This ensures a stable and continuous electricity supply to the electrolyzers, thereby increasing hydrogen output and reducing production costs. Off the grid, large onshore and offshore wind farms can be integrated directly with multi-megawatt and gigawatt electrolyzer systems, thus making them ideal for industrial, export, and fuel production hubs. The largest green hydrogen projects are typically located in wind-rich areas, where vast land or ocean availability enables significant expansion of renewable capacity. Furthermore, the drop in wind electricity prices, the progress in turbine technology, and government support in the wind market provide an attractive wind-to-hydrogen scenario that invites increasing investments. Predictably, all these aspects combined will sustain the wind energy sector as the major contributor to green hydrogen production during the forecast period. 

The mobility segment by end-use industry is expected to dominate the global green hydrogen market during the forecast period.

During the forecast period, the end-use mobility sector is projected to be the major contributor to the overall green hydrogen market, both in terms of monetary and physical size, due to the rapid surge in hydrogen-powered vehicle adoption. Among the mobility sectors, long-distance hydrogen is expected to lead, providing high energy density, fast refueling, and a wide operating range, which surpasses that of battery-electric solutions, which are not suitable for large or continuous-duty fleets. The global hydrogen corridors, zero-emission mandates, and large-scale deployment programs are the primary areas where countries promoting hydrogen mobility aim to serve as the main means of decarbonizing freight and public transport. The likes of Toyota, Hyundai, Alstom, and other leading maritime operators are not only strengthening their fuel cell and hydrogen-based solutions but also creating a strong market pull through their demand. With the development of refueling infrastructure and the increasing acceptance of hydrogen by fleet operators for commercial logistics, the mobility sector is poised to become the largest user of green hydrogen in terms of both total consumption volume and overall market value. 

North America is expected to be the fastest-growing region in the green hydrogen market during the forecast period.

During the projected period, North America is anticipated to be the fastest-growing region in the green hydrogen market, driven by strong policy support, rapid project development, and substantial investments from both public and private sectors. The US, via the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA), has been able to position itself globally in clean hydrogen production as it provides up to USD 3 per kilogram for low-carbon hydrogen as production tax credits, which is one of the most generous incentives in the world and hence significantly speeds up project economics for green hydrogen developers. Moreover, the U.S. Department of Energy has allocated approximately USD 7–8 billion for the establishment of several Regional Hydrogen Hubs, creating integrated hydrogen ecosystems for production, storage, transport, and end-use in industries such as mobility, chemicals, and power. The large-scale renewable resources in North America, including excellent wind and solar corridors, further support the cost-effective option of electrolysis. Canada is also moving forward with national hydrogen strategies and export-oriented projects, particularly those focused on green ammonia. With strong regulatory support, abundant renewable resources, and increasing industry adoption, North America is likely to witness the most significant deployment of green hydrogen over the next decade.

Study Findings May Provide Key Insight into Parkinson’s Disease

NEW YORK, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — The brain-chemical surge that comes with running may bolster coordination and speed in the old and young alike, a new study of middle-aged mice shows. Such physical activity may help restore ease of movement and agility, which often decline as humans and animals get older, the study authors said.

Led by NYU Langone Health researchers, the investigation explored how aerobic exercise can boost the release of dopamine, a brain chemical involved in movement, reward, and memory. The team built upon its earlier work, which revealed that young (10-week-old) male rodents had a lasting increase in dopamine release after voluntarily running on an exercise wheel for 30 days. The new findings showed that 12-month-old male mice — the equivalent of humans in their 50s — experienced the same or greater rises in the chemical.

In addition, the middle-aged runners could more swiftly and agilely climb down a pole or dash around an open arena than animals of the same age that did not have access to a functioning wheel. The study authors note that the rodents’ grip strength did not change after their month of exercise, suggesting that the improvements resulted solely from enhanced coordination rather than muscle power.

“Our findings make clear that the impact of exercise on brain health and mobility is not exclusive to the young,” said study senior author Margaret Rice, PhD. “By getting enough physical activity, we can still heighten dopamine release to help us move faster and more easily,” added Rice, a professor in the Departments of Neurosurgery and Neuroscience at NYU Grossman School of Medicine.

Experts have long understood the importance of aerobic exercise (activities that boost breathing and heart rate, such as swimming, cycling, and dancing). Such workouts, past research showed, drive the release of dopamine and other chemicals that are important for brain health. However, how the underlying mechanisms work in an aging brain and body had until now been unclear, says Rice, who notes that the brain cells (neurons) that produce dopamine gradually decline in older adults.

The new study, publishing online Dec. 9 in the journal npj Parkinson’s Disease, is believed to be the first to uncover a link between dopamine release from exercise and improved motor performance in aging mice of both sexes, according to the authors. They solely examined young males in their past research.

According to Rice, the findings may provide important insight into therapeutic approaches for Parkinson’s disease, a brain disorder in which dopamine-producing neurons can break down, leading to tremors, slow movement, and poor balance, among other concerns. Physical activity has long been observed to help ease patients’ symptoms.

“These results provide neurochemical evidence for why exercise improves everything from memory to movement to mood, all of which are affected in people with Parkinson’s disease,” said Rice.

Based on these findings, Rice says the research team next plans to repeat the study in mice genetically engineered to serve as models for the neurodegenerative disorder.

Rice cautions that future studies of humans will be required to fully understand how dopamine release prompted by exercise may impact Parkinson’s disease.

For the investigation, two-dozen mice were provided with unlimited access to either a freely rotating wheel or a locked one. After a month, the mice were examined in a variety of athletic tasks to test their mobility, coordination, and muscle strength. The research team then compared the performance of the runners with that of the non-runners. Next, the team measured dopamine release in brain slices from the same mice, collected from the striatum, a region that plays a key role in movement and motivation.

The findings revealed that mice in the exercise group had 50% higher dopamine release than their sedentary counterparts. Notably, while females ran twice as much as the males did, they saw equivalent boosts both in the hormone and in their motor performance. According to the authors, this suggests that a certain amount of exercise is sufficient to bolster dopamine and, once this is achieved, further elevation does not occur.

Funding for the study was provided by National Institutes of Health grants R01NS135884 and U19NS107616. More study funding was provided by the Marlene and Paolo Fresco Institute for Parkinson’s and Movement Disorders and the Parkinson’s Foundation.

Guendalina Bastioli, PhD, a former postdoctoral fellow at NYU Langone Health, is the study lead author. She is now at Vita-Salute San Raffaele University.

Other NYU Langone researchers involved in the study are Maria Mancini, PhD; Jyotiben Patel, PhD; Begoña Gamallo-Lana, PhD; Jennifer Arnold, PhD; and Adam Mar, PhD.

A dissolving patch delivers beneficial microbes into leaves and stems, speeding growth in vegetables while using over 15 per cent less biofertiliser than soil application

SINGAPORE, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Researchers at the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed dissolving microneedle patches that deliver living “biofertiliser” straight into plant tissue. In greenhouse tests, Choy Sum and Kale grew faster — by shoot biomass, leaf area and height — while using over 15 per cent less biofertiliser than standard soil inoculation.

The approach points to more precise fertiliser delivery, less waste and potentially lower off-target environmental impact, with near-term fit for urban and vertical farms and for high-value crops that benefit from controlled dosing.

Biofertiliser, which contain beneficial bacteria and fungi that help crops absorb nutrients and tolerate stress, are usually added to soil. There, they must compete with native microbes and can be hindered by acidity and various other conditions. Much of the input never reaches the roots. By placing beneficial bacteria or fungi directly into leaves or stems, the new method developed by the NUS team bypasses those hurdles and accelerates early gains.

“Inspired by how microbes can migrate within the human body, we hypothesised that by delivering beneficial microbes directly into the plant’s tissues, like a leaf or stem, they could travel to the roots and still perform their function, but much more effectively and be less vulnerable to soil conditions,” said Assistant Professor Andy Tay from Department of Biomedical Engineering at the College of Design and Engineering at NUS, and Principal Investigator at the Institute for Health Innovation & Technology (iHealthtech), who led the work.

The study was published in Advanced Functional Materials on 13 September 2025.

Gentle delivery

The team fabricated plant-tuned microneedles from polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), a biodegradable, low-cost polymer. For leaves, a 1 cm by 1 cm patch carries a 40 by 40 array of pyramids about 140 μm long, while a short row of roughly 430-μm needles suits thicker stems. Microbes are blended into the PVA solution, cast into tiny moulds and locked in the needle tips. Pressed by the thumb or with a simple handheld applicator that spreads force evenly, the needles slip into plant tissue and dissolve within about a minute, releasing their microbial cargo.

In laboratory tests, the patch barely disturbed plant tissue or function. Shallow indentations in leaves faded within two hours; chlorophyll readings remained stable; and stress-response gene expression, which briefly rose after insertion, returned to baseline within 24 hours. The patches maintained high microbial viability after storage for up to four weeks – this means the patches can be prepared in advance – and importantly, loading concentration translated to delivered dose, which enables controlled application that is difficult to achieve in soil. A 3D-printed applicator provided uniform insertion across large leaf areas and could become an integral component in future robotic automation.

Proving the approach

The NUS team demonstrated that delivering a plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) cocktail of Streptomyces and Agromyces-Bacillus through leaves or stems improved growth in Choy Sum and Kale compared to untreated controls and gave better results than soil treatments with microbes. PGPR is commonly used to improve nutrient uptake and stimulate growth hormones in plants.

Additionally, the plants grew more as the researchers loaded more microbes into each patch, up to an effective ceiling. Beyond that, extra microbes did not help the plants grow further. This lets growers determine the lowest effective dose, which in turn cuts costs and waste.

“Our microneedle system successfully delivered biofertiliser into Choy Sum and Kale, enhancing their growth more effectively than traditional methods while using over 15 per cent less biofertiliser,” Asst Prof Tay said. “By faster growth we refer to higher total plant weight, larger leaf area and higher plant height.”

The team tracked the bacteria as they moved from the injected leaves to the roots within days. At the roots, the bacteria nudged the root microbiome towards a more beneficial mix without throwing it out of balance. Plant chemical readouts showed that the main energy-production cycle (involves cells turning sugars into usable energy) was working harder, nitrogen was used more efficiently and compounds needed for growth were synthesised at a higher rate. The team also observed stronger antioxidant capacity, a sign the plants were better prepared for stress and growth.

The team extended the approach to beneficial fungi. Patches loaded with a Tinctoporellus strain (AR8) promoted Choy Sum growth and adjusted phytohormones levels – the signalling molecules that guide how plants grow, develop, and respond to their surroundings – helping to keep plant growth hormones in balance. “This work is the first to demonstrate that root-associated biofertiliser can be directly delivered into a plant’s leaves or stems to enhance growth,” Asst Prof Tay added. “With this finding, we introduced a new concept of ‘microneedle biofertiliser’ that overcomes significant challenges of soil inoculation.”

The researchers see early applications in urban and vertical farms where precise dosing matters, as well as in slow-growing, high-value crops such as medicinal herbs. Looking ahead, Asst Prof Tay added, “A major focus is scalability. We plan to explore integrating our microneedle technology with agricultural robotics and automated systems to make it feasible for large-scale farms. We will also test this across a wider variety of crops, such as strawberry, and investigate how these microbes migrate effectively from the leaf to the root.”

In his keynote speech, Chairman Wang Feng chronicled Linglong’s evolution since its founding in 1975. From its origins as a single factory in the Jiaodong Peninsula, the company has navigated multiple strategic transformations to become a global enterprise with products distributed across 173 countries. Wang expressed gratitude to academic advisors, university partners, financial institutions, suppliers, and clients, emphasizing that Linglong’s milestones were made possible by a foundation of mutual trust and collaboration.

Looking ahead, Wang Feng articulated Linglong’s ambition to transition from a “large enterprise” to a “great enterprise,” anchored in a customer-first philosophy. The company will focus on building an open, inclusive, and synergistic global industrial ecosystem, fostering deeper cooperation across the value chain through technological innovation.

Distinguished guests, including Serbian Ambassador to China Maja Stefanović and academician Zhang Liqun, praised Linglong’s role in promoting international cooperation and technological progress. During an awards ceremony, Linglong honored long-term partners such as Bekaert and VMI for their unwavering support.

A series of technological achievements were unveiled, highlighting Linglong’s commitment to sustainable development:

• Tires made with 79% bio-based materials, boosting resource efficiency;
• Self-healing smart tires that enhance proactive safety;
• Air-free tire technology for future mobility ecosystems;

These innovations reflect Linglong’s capacity to turn sustainability commitments into tangible products.

The company also signed multiple strategic agreements with leading institutions. These collaborations—spanning new materials, green energy, and digitalization—signal a shift from traditional supply-chain relations to an integrated value-creation ecosystem.
